Long, stretched out great jamming. Serious "Stronger than Dirt" in the middle of it all. Beautiful.

Playin' In The Band

Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

Surrounds a great China Doll, very psychedelic in places, marimba madness and tripped out phasing. Greatness from a not-so-great year.

Not usually an 80's fan, but this one is spooky, mysterious and trippy. Inside a Playin' sandwich that's pretty ripping for the late date, too.

Lot's of fast fun, and just slightly out of control. Seems they're hanging on for dear life. Enjoy!

Just so good. Smooth, great vocals. Jerry's crystal clear and ripping throughout.

Sounds like Tom C. on a steam calliope. Any historians out there know what rig he was on here? Cool, pure 1970 sound here just giving birth to itself out of the crash landing of the sixties....

Jerry's vocal performance is clear and beautiful. Sweet, pure version.

Almost studio perfect. Lovely

Funny you'd say that hvd, I just made a similar comment about 10 June 1973: Opening with the Dew always means going in big.

Any show that OPENS with Morning Dew is going to be spectacular. Maybe that's too obvious to say, but damn they mean bizznezz from the start. A ripsnorting version from all sides.
